Welcome back to the Evolve Move Play podcast!

In this episode, I sit down with Aaron Cantor, an EMP coach, movement facilitator, and long-time collaborator. Aaron takes us on a captivating journey from his roots in traditional movement practices to his current role as a physical intelligence teacher.

As our conversation unfolds, Aaron shares his eclectic influences, spanning from contact improvisation to clowning, and how he has integrated these elements into his work with Evolve Move Play. 

Together, we dive into the concept of roughhousing as a foundational practice for nurturing emotional attunement, fostering intellectual growth, and cultivating empathy.

I also take a moment to open up about my own emotional healing journey and the profound impact of somatic practices. We emphasize the vital role of embodied practices in building emotional resilience and explore the idea of reframing roughhousing as a pathway to emotional awareness and grounding in the body.

Join us as we envision a future where embodied education takes center stage and discover how Evolve Move Play is poised to have a pivotal role in shaping this transformative paradigm shift.
